Star Durant fuel tank
star durant tank
We formed brass around steel endcaps and designed this tank for a 1924 Star that had been converted to a pick-up truck sometime in the past. It had ribs, baffles, a chain on the cap, custom cap and unique fuel level gauge we found online.
Features include:
- Tank dimensions: length 32" tank diameter 10"
- Tank fuel capacity is 11 gallons
- 22GA Steel
- .125 steel mounting straps - available upon request
- Filler neck with venting
- baffles on the inside
- Tanks may be painted BUT NOT POWDERCOATED*
Powder coating temperatures frequently exceed solder melting points and may compromise tank integrity.
We make to order. Please allow adequate time for us to build.
Build time estimates [Feb 2025]
Brass/Black Model Ts
Our longstanding foundry (supplier) closed and all production was shifted to a neighboring foundry. Apparently many of the closed foundry's workers were ineligible for rehire by the new foundry due to more aggressive immigration enforcement and the union has no employees to provide. As of 2-20-25, we should receive castings in March 2025 and can resume production then.
In the interim, we have been working with our one-off foundry to have pattern boxes made and these are trickling in in smaller batches and we will produce what we can.
Model As 5-6 weeks
Heater cores ~6 weeks
Model A and 32 Ford Street rods 6 weeks
Common street rods ~12-15 weeks
Tricky customs & complicated restorations ~16 weeks months
We appreciate your patience as we continue to recruit and train new fabricators and manage the labor shortfall our country has been experiencing.
